and yes..a knife makes a difference. worth every damn dollar when you know what to do with one.

They will stay on for the rest of the afternoon. This wootoff has been very uninspiring.

I am a bigger fan of German cutlery than Japanese. I have this set: http://www.chefscatalog.c...f-Classic-Block-Set.aspx
and it is amazing. There is a knife for everything. The 10" chef's knife is amazing and the steak knives make my old Henkel's look like butter knives.

I have the same block. Still working on filling it up though.

You can't go wrong. both are amazing knife sets which you WILL PAY DEARLY for.

17 degree blade vs 20.. both are the sharpest things you are likely to every own....
After holding both at a Williams and Sonoma, I'm a big fan of the Shun Ken Onion set..the handle and bolster are more natural and remind me of the special made "Alton Angles"

There was a great Modern Marvels that I saw once: Cutting tools (or something like that). Showed how they make these blades. It was really cool.
